I have to confessmy love of elephants made me apprehensive to review a book about their role in World War II. But as soon as I began to read Elephant Company, I realized that not only was my heart safe, but that this book is about far more than just the war, or even elephants. This is the story of friendship, loyalty and breathtaking bravery that transcends species…Croke paints a rich and intimate portrait of a fascinating man living in extraordinary circumstances, and the even more extraordinary peopleand elephantssurrounding him…Croke is a natural storyteller, and she deftly evokes Williams's tale…Elephant Company is nothing less than a sweeping tale, masterfully written.
